Sorry Claude, but I must disagree based upon the evidence submitted - Gary has another paph growing
under the same feeding and watering regimen which is fine (I feed my paphs at every watering ,
too...)

I cannot claim to be a paph pro either, but if I see such reactions in mine, I unpot to check the
root condition, removing any damaged areas and the damaged leaves altogether, and repot into fresh
medium, paying close attention to warm and evenly moist conditions after doing so.

Hello!

I`m not a Paph expert but my guess will be too much water and fertilizer!

You can go once a month or every other week with the fertilizer ( very
diluted ! If the recipe on the bottle says 1 teaspoon per gallon, cut that
by 4, 1/4 teaspoon per gallon ).
Try to cut down on the water!

| Hello,
|
| I purchased this Paph in March at the SFOS in Miami, it already had a
| bruised spot on the leaf but took a chance as I got a great deal. Well the
| damaged leaf has turned yellow and the bruised spot has gotten bigger, I
| figured I would lose that leaf anyway. But the other leaf is also turning
a
| yellow color with brown closer to the stem.
|
| It now lives in a bright west window in Michigan, it gets very little to
no
| direct sunlight as a shade is pulled when the sunlight is direct about two
| hours. It also is not subject to drafts. In fact it shares a table with
| another Paph (larger and doing great) a Cat a Phal and a Phrag they all
seem
| to do good and have new growth.
|
| I water twice a week, the water has Schultz 19-31-17 Orchid food mixed in.
| The medium seems to be Vermiculite and small bark chips with little white
| pieces of foam.
|
| Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.
|
| Thanks,
| Gary
